Year's Support Books

Book Contents

These books are indexed by the name of deceased. A granting of year's support (also known as 12 months' support) conveys the title of the real property of the deceased to the petitioner (usually the spouse) and minor children of the deceased. In some cases, permission must be granted by the court in order to later sell or incumber the property. Since 1980, the year's support petitioners are filed in the minutes books. A list of Year's Support Books by date can be found below.
